We have introduced a new documentation management platform which is designed to empower you with full control over your legal documents, including your Trade License, VAT Certificate (if applicable), Bank Details, Authorized Signatory Details (Identity proof) among others.
Just update your documents within the new platform, and then sit back as we diligently review and approve them. Once approved, you'll have the autonomy to manage subsequent changes by yourself.
Note:
1. Updating these documents will not impact your current selling privileges
or your account status. You can continue to manage your seller account as usual.
2. If you already have an approved ‘legal entity’, you need not take any further
action and can operate your store as usual.
